Or maybe he was always a sell-out but that wasn't news back when he wasn't competing against a Democrat.
I don't support either candidate personally .. Its just amazing how perception matters so much more than substance in politics now.
Obama is being sold as the answer to our problems when his actual political experience is pretty light.
So is Hillary's although she probably had more experience with an actual Presidential administration than either McCain or Obama.
McCain at one time was an extremely popular moderate/centrist and now he isn't.
Neither Gore or Kerry had a chance of running again - why is that? because they "lost already?" A candidate cant run again anymore due to the fact they accumulate too many bad stories to be electable now?
It seems the Media of all varieties has too much impact on the process now.
Truth/journalistic integrity aren't what they were a few decades ago and it will cost us eventually.
